      I have been doing grilled cheese in the airfryer for a while now. Don't use the stove anymore. The only issue I still have is the convection fan can sometimes lifts the bread.

    That crunch and cut was EPIC!! Now I need to make grilled cheese exactly like this in my air fryer! Wings are my favorite thing made in the air fryer too. I bought the parchment paper cut for it and I won’t go back. I LOVE bacon wrapped jalapeño poppers in it too! 400° for 13 to 15 mins = perfection! Yummy!! 🤤 I love Emmy’s videos!! You Rock, Emmy!! ♥️ Does anyone else like mustard on their grilled cheese? SO GOOD!

    • @MsPsych2009
      @MsPsych2009 2 года назад +3

      @D.Y. When I make them, I usually do 8 to 10 wings at a time on 380 to 400 for 17 minutes, flipping at the 7 minute mark so they get evenly crispy. The air fryer parchment paper works wonders as they don’t stick to the bottom and you can throw the paper out after you’re done. The drippings still drip to the bottom so the bottom basket needs cleaned out but you can always put foil underneath the basket for easier cleaning. If you like your wings less crispy, you can probably do for shorter time like 15 mins. I like extra crispy so sometimes I cook for 18 to 20 mins. 😊 🍗

    An important tip: While preheating your air fryer DO NOT put foil or parchment paper in there unless there is something holding it down. I found out the hard way that the fan in the air fryer will draw up the foil or parchment paper to the heating element.

  • @SpecialInterestShow
    @SpecialInterestShow 2 года назад +30

    If anyone is having issues with the Air Fryer's circulation causing the top bread to get lifted / blown off,
    the simple solution is to use toothpicks to hold it down until time to flip!
    At that point, you can remove the toothpicks and flip! No need to put them back in; the cheese will hold everything together now!

    One of the best grilled cheese sandwiches I've ever had was cream cheese, American cheese, sliced tomato and seasoning salt on sourdough. We had a great little smoothie shop right next to use when I was working at the Century Link building (it was Qwest when I worked there) in downtown Phoenix. They didn't last that long, unfortunately, but I still remember that sandwich.

    I'm a bit of a grilled cheese purist. I've tried a bunch of variations over the years but nothing beats the OG basic recipe. Two slices of white bread, buttered on the outside faces. Two slices of DELI-SLICED American cheese (infinitely better than the pre-packaged garbage), fry in a hot nonstick skillet until golden brown on each side. Serve alone or with a piping-hot bowl of tomato soup for dipping. The only variation I've come up with that even comes close is to put several slices of pepperoni between the two slices of cheese, but it's still a distant second to the OG grilled cheese sandwich.

    I like squishing the bread down a little with my spatula as the grilled cheese cooks in a skillet. I can see the air fryer being a substitute if you don't have a stove top for cooking, but otherwise there is something about the mildly crispy, buttery outside of the skillet grilled cheese that is perfect to me. But... tuna melt? I bet the air fryer would do awesome!

      What do you use for the gluten-free bread substitute? Most gluten-free breads I've tasted were kind of gummy.
      (Note this is an honest question. I have a friend who isn't celiac but is sensitive to it, and I'd like to be able to find something that isn't going to make her feel awful. But the breads I've found here that are labeled gluten-free all seem to use guar gum or xanthan gum or both, which imparts a bad texture if there's high moisture. If the answer is that the air fryer helps with that, then I'm happy with that as an answer. :> )

    My son's favorite grilled cheese has sharp cheddar, havarti, and swiss. My trick to getting those to melt is to use the ultra thin slices and to grill them on low, slow heat.

    I've never been huge on grilled cheese, but I followed Emmy's mayo+butter method (first time I've seen someone use both!) and used a handful of finely shredded Colby jack, and holy crap! I loved it! Will definitely be eating more grilled cheeses from now on!
    I was worried it would be soggy due to having both the butter and the mayo, but so long as you do a thin layer, it comes out so crispy! Crispier than in the frying pan, even!
    I can't wait to make these for my little niece and nephews. Plus, the best part is my pan can probably hold like 4-6 at a time, as opposed to a pan which might not cook as many!

    I just got my first air fryer and I was curious if it was possible to make grilled cheese in it because making it on the stove doesn't always turn out right more often than not. Glad to see it is possible, and I see many videos about it which is good. Granted, not a mayo fan and everyone is using mayo, I'd rather just butter both sides. Also not sure about the tin foil. Again, something everyone uses though mostly for easy cleanup. The instructions that came with my fryer said not to use tin foil because it messes with the air circulation, the air can't get under the food which is why it may not toast or crisp on the bottom facing side that's touching the foil.

    This reminds me of my favorite way to have toast, with it buttered and put in the oven on broil for around 4-5 minutes. It gets it so nice and crispy!

    my favorite cheese combo to use for grilled cheese is a shredded Mexican or Italian style blend cheese on the outside with a slice or two of Colby Jack in the center. using shredded cheese allows it to melt a little easier. I put mayo on the inside of the bread with butter on the outside. sometimes I put a slice of grilled ham in the middle too. but then I don't have an air fryer. so I have to use a griddle or frying pan to make my grilled cheese.

    I find the air fryer grilled cheese to be too crunchy, it scraped the roof of my mouth and gums, whereas the pan fried kind doesn't, and butter without mayo makes a better flavor, we tested these many times, overall sentiment was pan was superior, melt the butter in the pan and dip the dry bread in for a brown butter flavor and no mayo

    I use butter on the outside. I like Gouda and or Swiss. I add onions and or bacon, then pepper or hot paprika . I don’t use foil. I put my sandwich directly in the air fryer (gourmia) and in 3 minutes, I have a lovely crisp, golden sandwich where the cheese is gooey

    Using mayo to help toast up bready things in the oven is something I do myself, usually when making fried chicken sandwiches (with Aldi's frozen chicken, which is just amazing for affordable chicken, lacks in salt though), spread it on bun halves, and in my case add some black pepper cos I love it like that, toss in the oven as the chicken is close to being done, and wait 'til golden, and hopefully it's done all at once to throw together into my sandwich... :D

    The first time I ever saw anyone use Mayo on a Grilled Cheese was about 10 years ago by Iron Chef MIchael Symon. Whether it was his idea or not I can't say but it is tasty, even if a little more messy to make. I seem to remember that he said the extra crispiness comes from the caramelizing of the sugar in the mayo. Great video. I adore your excitement and passion about everything 'food'.

    I do NOT like mayo, I won’t even eat a sandwich or burger or whatever if it had mayo on it at one point and was scraped off, I’m that sensitive to it.
    However- I too use mayo on the outside of my grilled cheese sandwiches. Something about it just makes the crunch more substantial. I do a very light spread of mayo on the exterior and then a bit of butter on the inside so I still get the butter flavor, same as Emmy did. Changed my life!
